Beta Chapter From My Upcoming Book on the ArcGIS Server API for JavaScript

I am in the process of writing a book (tentatively titled ‘The GIS Geeks Guide to Mastering the ArcGIS Server API for JavaScript”) about the ArcGIS Server API for JavaScript. I thought that I would make the process a bit more open by releasing beta chapters that some people might read and give feedback on. Hopefully one of those people is you!

I’m doing this because I think the book will be better based on feedback that I get from my readers and of course it will serve as motivation for finishing the book!

About the book

In short the book is about how to use the ArcGIS Server API for JavaScript to build high performance, attractive Web mapping applications using the lightweight, browser based ArcGIS Server API for JavaScript. It will be very hands on with lots of examples that can be used right away.

Download the chapter

I am not going to release the chapters in chronological order so the first chapter to be released in public beta is not the first but rather the third covering maps and layers.

Download the chapter, read it, and tell me what you think. Either by posting a comment below or by contacting me directly through eric at geospatialtraining.com.
